Charla Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Be sure and mention the overheating problem and warn them to watch out for his wonky back. If they are aware of something to look out for you shouldn't have any problems.

Riverhound Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 It's today. It's good that he has no idea, and will think it's just the best thing ever to take an early ride to the vet. Quote Masterful Joe and Naughty N Nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riverhound Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Got him! He's only minus one of the furthest back molars.

RedHead Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 So glad it is over with. I felt such a relief when they called to say Teague was ready to pick up Joe will be back to normal in a day or so!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverhound Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 We're home. Note to self: buy buckle martingale because dog doesn't want collar pulled over his head after losing a tooth. Probably not a bad thing to have around, anyway. Quote Masterful Joe and Naughty N Nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neighsayer Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I have one of those all in one walking leads that I use for trips to the vet. Easy to get over their heads. I got mine on eBay years ago after doing a search for greyhound walking leads. Hope he feels better soon. I'm trying not to panic over Mickey's dental on Monday, so I was hoping for good news on your guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverhound Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 Excellent idea, Irene! I even have one. Somewhere. He's friggin exhausted, but perked up a lot when his Daddy got home, and his eyes open when we move around. I'll keep Mickey in my thoughts Monday.

Riverhound Posted September 5, 2014 Author Share Posted September 5, 2014 (edited) Sorry, Ducky! He's still not interested in water, ice, or orange sherbet. Not dehydrated, so I should probably just have another beer and let him sleep. He peed a river when I picked him up. Since he's not eating or drinking, I should wait until tomorrow to start Rimadyl and Clindamycin, right? I have Tramadol on hand if he gets owie, and he doesn't react badly to it. Oh -- $477.50 with a single extraction. (+ $100 last week for exam and senior bloodwork) Would've been about 3x that at my local vet. And I scored a bunch of free noms! It was dog walking time when I dropped him off, so I got to walk a couple girls while I settled down. If anyone wants a GIANT girl who can only be a single hound, Flo is awesome! ETA: Burpdog crumbles did the trick. Three, mushed up, were hoovered right down. After that, some water went in. He doesn't look stoned anymore, either.

Greylover97 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Glad he is finally drinking. I would start the Rimadyl tonight. That will take care of any pain. I would wait on the antibiotics when he has some food in his system.

NeylasMom Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 When did they tell you to start meds? Sometimes you don't need to start until the following day because they've given injectable meds that day. ETA: I wouldn't do Rimadyl on an empty stomach.
